Rattapallax, Inc. is a not-for-profit organization and the producer of the augmented reality comic book series, Priya’s Shakti, which received the Tribeca Film Institute New Media Fund from the Ford Foundation and supported by the World Bank, and showcased at New York Film Festival. For creating India’s first female superhero who is a rape survivor, the project was named a “gender equality champion” by UN Women. The series has over 26 million readers and over 2000 news stories.
Rattapallax produced The Russian Woodpecker, which won the Grand Jury Prize at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival and nominated for Independent Spirit Awards. Rattapallax’s most recent film, The Karma Killings, about the Nithari serial killings in Noida was out exclusively on Netflix worldwide. The Karma Killings is hailed as “true crime watershed moment” in India (Arré).
